The People and the Surfers new category
From time to time, we may see a Surfer get an awesome ride, someone wins a contest, anything positive about the folks in the neighborhood, we may make a comment or compliment.
Thursday night surf guess (9/29/10)
The size based on what I see with the growth in stength of the swell (from 10 sec to 11 second period) means more of ground swell. Size is looking to be at least waist high to shoulder high for Friday morning and decreasing slowly thru the day. The size is depending weather you do the Cape or Satellite Beach respectively.
The 120 buoy is still growng, it hit 14 feet at 11 seconds, and 12.5 at 12 seconds, but with the winds blowing offshore all night tonight, it may keep some of the swell from coming in any more.
To the chase waist to shoulder high and glassy is my guess. With the swell fading overnight Friday, but should be ridable Saturday for awhile. (longboard probably).
I put the 120 buoy chart here, to show the growth, but the size of our surf is reflected above in my writing.
Sorry, the updates kinda dry tonight, 6 hours of surfing and I’m spent, ain’t getting any younger 🙂
If you don’t want these charts backing up some comments just let me know. Thanks. Art
It’s firing ! (7 to 8 am surfcheck)
Yeah. Stop by Dunkin Donuts get your sandwich and java fix and pick your spot!
The pier is firing barrells but definitely its share of closeouts, but there looks like plenty of shoulders. Looks like some nice lines are building, 10 sec period swell hit the 120 at 10 pm last night, so this swell is still coming in for then next hour or two.
Winds feel about 12.7 mph or so, but supposedly they will back down for a couple hours and then pickup at noon out of the NNW.
Enjoy it while its here!!
